Craider followed Viscount Buttery's butler down the hallway.
After reporting, he, Bedrich, and his Fertility Order team moved towards the Viscount's mansion.
The Church of the Earth Mother sent a Bishop to accompany them.
Anyone could tell that even the butler guiding them is abnormal.
Following behind, the team listened to the butler's explanations.
"We weren't expecting you, Your Excellency. If we'd knew you planned on visiting, we'd send a formal invitation for the Ball. Today's moon is shining exceptionally bright. Isn't it beautiful?"
The Bishop frowned, but answered as if it was natural.
"Indeed... where is Viscount Buttery currently? I feel bad for intruding right as the ball ended."
The butler looked back, showing a happy but formal smile.
"Don't dwell on it, Your Excellency. The Lord will be delighted to see you visiting. As for where he's currently, well. I regret to inform you that I'm not exactly sure. He's disappeared towards the end of the ball. But I'm sure he's just needed to get some fresh air. He'll be with you very soon."
Craider's expression turned strange.
'Disappeared?'
He turned to look at the Bishop.
The Bishop wore a frown, seemingly having the same bad premonition.
Just as he was about to speak, a loud scream filled their ears.
The team of Beyonders, as well as the butler stopped.
Without any need for orders, the Fertility Order's Beyonders moved towards where the sound came from.
They found themselves before large dual doors leading into the ballroom.
Craider pushed the door wide open.
The light filled his eyes, before a bloody scene revealed itself.
In the middle of the hall was a total of five fully dead and still bleeding bodies.
One had his body cut in half.
The other had his throat seemingly penetrated by a short dagger.
The third one had nothing left but a charred and black body parts.
The fourth's left chest was pierced, still bleeding fresh blood.
And the last one, the fifth one, was a familiar face.
It was Viscount Buttery, his body seemed to be stabbed by a multitude of sharp objects, cutting open his neck and slashing open his eye.
The team of Beyonders rushed in.
One female servant was sitting on the ground, her face filled with fear.
The other servants were either hiding or running away.
Standing in the middle of the hall, Craider was about to say something, but he paused.
He saw the Bishop move closer to the Viscount's body before looking at it closely.
His face was filled with confusion.
Craider could hear the Bishop mumbling under his breath.
"How is the Spirit perfectly intact?"
Craider frowned, he also looked around at the rest of the dead bodies.
With activated Spirit Vision, he could see the firm outlines of the spirits.
